Statement 1. The glycoprotein which is secreted by the juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney when the level of oxygen is low is known as erythropoietin.
Statement 2. Erythropoietin converts Angiotensinogen into Angiotensin-1 to regulate RBCs production.
Statement 1 and statement 2 both are right.
Statement 1 is wrong, statement 2 is right.
Statement 2 is wrong, statement 1 is right.
Both statements are wrong
The glycoprotein which is secreted by the juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney when the level of oxygen is low is known as erythropoietin. Erythropoietin stimulates the bone marrow to increase the production of RBCs. It is secreted by the tubular part of the kidney.
Hence, the correct answer is option 3.
